    Of course we are. However, China is even worse. Obviously I am being unrealistic but it’s funny how the most important thing in the world (the world itsself) is less important to the world’s societies than an artificial construct like money. You can’t bring your belongings with you when you die.

      Per capita, we pollute twice as much as China does. On top of that, most of their pollution is directly linked to making products for us.

      We are the bad guys here, no contest. Especially when looking at how our government fights the transition every step of the way.

      I totally agree though, it’s completely mental that the environment isn’t our top priority.
